Quality Control

Our Olivomycin is produced and handled under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, purity assay, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment. We can support development and commercial projects requiring compliance with cGMP, ICH guidelines, and other relevant regulatory standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) or as specified on the label or COA. The product is light-sensitive (store away from light) and hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). For long-term storage, consider desiccants and an inert atmosphere to maintain stability.
